PARAGRAPHIC BITS ABOUT WE FOLKS Notes of the Week on the Coming and Going of People You Know. Miss Della Otis went to Chicago last Wednesday on business for the A. W. Strieby store. Keith and Hoy Jones came Saturday morning to spend a few days with their grandmother ; Mrs. Jane Jones. Mrs. John W. Agnew of Omaha Neb., spent last week here. She had been in Chicago on business, and while so close to the old home town she could not resist her longing to come out to Syracuse.

Perhaps you've seen it —Signor Friscoe’s * ‘Magic” Xylophone Act. It's the hit of vaudeville's °Big-Time." Signor Friscoe's “magic" is an Official Laboratory Model of the New Edison.

NEW EDISON M The Phonograph with a Soul** ..x. . ’ • \ :

4i * You’ve read how the New Edison has proved its perfect realism. Four thousand tests have been .given, in which more than 50 different artists compared their art with its ReCreation by the New Edison. Leading newspapers conceded that there was no difference between the two. * Has any one suggested to you that these comparison tests are “faked”— that the artist imitates the New Edison ? Signor Friscoe’s performance makes such an assertion positively ridiculous. Every week, 20,000 people see his hammers ripple over the xylophone keys. Suddenly he holds them aloft—still. The rippling music continues. Slowly, the gorgeous curtains of the backdrop part. The audience gasps. The New Edison stands revealed. It has taken up Signor Friscoe’s performance, and is now Rk-Cbkating it alone. The effect of this extraordinary magic can rest upon only one fact: No one can distinguish any difference between Signor Friscoe’s performance and its Rb-Cbkation by the New Edison. Signor Friacoe could not possibly imitate the New

Miss Neva Foster and Miss Florence Clayton spent the week end in Avilla with Miss Foster’s grandmother, Mrs. Martha Frier. Five little boys were entertained by Otis Clyde Butt jr. Monday afternoon at the home of his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hinderer. The occasion was in celebration of his fifth birthday. Those present were Joe Kindig, Samuel Searfoss and Robert Searfoss and Harry Stone.

million dollars to perfect. Our instrument is also an exact * duplicate of this famous three million dollar original. We guarantee it to be able to give the same marvelous ReCreations of music, which Signor Friscoe's Official Laboratory Model gives in vaudeville. Come in and test the astonishing realism of this instrument for yourself—in Mr. Edison's Realism Test.

Edison, because the xylophone can not be made to imitate any other instrument, so as to deceive its hearers. Signor Friscoe’s act is not an Edison enterprise. He has simply been clever enough to use the New Edison for what it is worth. Why don’t you? PRICES The price of the New Edison has increased less than 15% since 1914. This includes the War Tax. Mr. Edison has staved off price advances by personally absorbing more than half of the increased cost of manufacture. Because of the exceptionally high quality of materials and workmanship demanded by the Edison laboratories, and the continued scarcity of both, it may be necessary to advance prices. But rest assured that this will not occur, unless Mr. Edison ir \ forced to it. Our Budget Plan—the thrift way of spending—will help you buy now. Let us tell you about it.
